Let's face it; nobody wants to be skinny and weak. Deep down everybody desires the ripped, muscular physique of a UFC fighter or an NFL running back. That's the kind of look that attracts the ladies and earns respect from the guys. But the question that perplexes many of you is "how do I get that look?" Well search no more because I am about to teach you how to gain weight and build muscle at break neck speeds and finally achieve the head turning physique you have always dreamed of.

Most skinny guys and wannabe mass monsters make numerous mistakes in their training programs and naming them all here would take an entire book. But the important thing is that you stop making those mistakes immediately and start following my top ten tips on how to gain weight fast.

Train Heavy- You will never build any significant size with high reps and light weights. If you want to get huge you need to add weight to the bar and bring your reps down a bit.

Don't Train For More Than 45 Minutes Per Session- Your testosterone output is dramatically increased during a weight training workout but this only lasts for 45 minutes. After that point its shot. What happens then is that your testosterone levels start to plummet and cortisol levels start to rise. Cortisol eats muscle and increases body fat storage. So hit it hard and get out quick.

Always Follow the Law of Progressive Overload- If you want to get huge you have to use progressive overload in your training. What this means is that you absolutely must improve upon your previous performance every time you enter the gym. You can do this by lifting heavier weights, doing more reps with the same weight, doing more sets, doing the same amount of work in less time or doing more work in the same amount of time. But whatever you do, DON'T do the exact same thing as the last time you were in the gym. You must give your body a reason to grow and repeating the exact same workout as last time does not force muscle growth.

Use Big, Compound Exercises- Exercises like squats, deadlifts, military presses and rows should be the staples of your mass building workout program. These are the exercises that build the most muscle and stimulate the greatest testosterone production. Most machines are a waste of time and do very little to help you pack on size. Stick with free weight movements like dumbbell presses and good mornings, and bodyweight exercises like chin ups and dips.

Eat Big- No matter how good your training program is you will never develop a massively muscled physique if you don't consume enough calories. You need to eat every 2-3 hours and focus on getting one gram of lean protein per pound of bodyweight daily and an ample amount of clean carbs and healthy fats. For super skinny guys with a fast metabolism I recommend focusing on foods like rice, potatoes, pasta and consuming 30% of your calories from healthy fats like avocado, nuts and cold pressed oils.

Yes, it's true that weight training with cardio will be much more effective in overall fat loss than just doing cardio alone. In fact, there's several reasons for this and before I dive into them, let's make it clear that if you trying to burn fat and not doing weight training as part of that, you are really taking some big steps backwards. Have you ever wondered why some people seem to burn more fat and at a faster rate? You seem them in the gym, they don't spend a lot of time doing cardio or weights but they seem to lean up quickly. What do you do? Why you do more cardio right? Burn more of those calories off. Pretty soon you are close to 2 hour sessions but that's okay. Wrong! Fact: An important key to the entire process is weight training. If you don't train with resistance during this time, it's entirely possible some of your "loss" will be from lean muscle tissue. That's a big mistake. And if you do lose a lot of weight too quickly (too much cardio, starvation diets) you will end up losing a majority of your weight thur lean muscle tissue. In just a second, I'm going to tell you why that's how you can really screw up your metabolism and it's exactly the opposite of what you want to do. Fact: Weight training is the single most effective form of exercise for long term fat loss and lean muscle preservation. When you incorporate weight training into your fat loss program, you are ensuring that your gradual body fat reduction comes from fat tissues and not lean muscle. For starters… Aerobic exercise is great for cardiovascular fitness and as a metabolic boosting tool and creating new pathways for nutrients. But it's simply cannot build muscle to the extent that weight training can. Frankly… If all you do is cardio for your fat loss goals plus a solid nutrition plan, you can drop a lot of lean muscle mass as well and end up lowering your BMR (basal metabolic rate). So what? If you lower your BMR by losing more muscle it means you have to exercise MORE to burn more calories! That means more gym time, longer cardio sessions than the person right next to you who does some simple but effective weight resistance exercise as part of their overall "fat loss program." On the other hand, if you do some weight training as part of your program and you gain some muscle, you are burning more calories all the time. Even at rest! This means that the more muscle you have, the higher your metabolism will be and the more calories you burn all the time. Before you think "but I don't want to bulk up," that's not even part of the plan. Simply engaging in some form of moderate weight resistance program will help you build and maintain the muscle and help you burn more of the fat. You end up having a higher BMR, a faster metabolism and less fat without having to spend more time in the gym. So it all adds up to this… An important key to the entire process of burning fat is weight training. Make sure that your "fitness" program always includes some form of weight training.

Have you lost contact with a former friend and would like to find them again? Would you like to look up an old flame and rekindle a past romance? With the advent of the Internet, finding people you have lost contact with has never been easier. There are several sites you can use in order to locate a person, but the majority of these sites are expensive or difficult to use. One site, LocatePeople.org, is affordable and very user friendly. Everyone is curious about what happened to at least one person from their past. However, even though the Internet makes it much easier to learn about people from our pasts, most search sites are difficult to use. Making matters even more difficult is the fact that many people have changed their names, especially women who get married and choose to take their husband's name. Many web sites do not take this into account, so any search you conduct on a person will stop once the history of that name stops. LocatePeople.org allows you to search for a person using their maiden names or past names. The databases they utilize will then find all the names or alias used by that person so that you will have up to date information about that individual. Are you just curious about what happened to someone, but you do not want to necessarily contact that person? LocatePeople.org is a discrete and private way to search for a person from your past without drawing any attention to you. You can conduct the search in the privacy of your own home. In a matter of minutes, all the information you will need will be at your fingertips. This includes a list of past and current addresses, all of the individual's names and alias, and their arrest record, should they have one. All you need in order to conduct a search on a person is a first and last name (even a maiden name), and the last state in which you know they lived. Once you hit the search button, all pertinent information about that person will be displayed on your computer screen. Only you will know that you ordered a search on this individual. However, some people do want to find a person in order to re-establish a relationship. This is becoming a new trend in society because it is now so easy and records are more accessible than ever, especially at LocatePeople.org . If you are interested in contacting this person, LocatePeople.org can provide you with the information you will need in order to find that person. From the LocatePeople.org databases you can obtain their current name, street address, and phone number. At this point, it is up to you to determine how you will contact your soon-to-be new friend.LocatePeople.org allows you to quickly find the people you want to find and puts you in the driver's seat. Your privacy is protected and the decision to make contact is completely at your discretion.

The term Ecological Gardening seems to be gaining popularity. But what is it? My experience with Ecological Gardening started many years ago. You see, I have always been a fence sitter. As a teenager I could never make my mind up whether I wanted to be a horticulturist or an environmental scientist. And sometimes I'm still a little unsure!

Fortunately, I have been able to gain qualifications in both. My specialty is in growing food using ecological principles. But I'm not talking about some sort of alternative hippie technique. I'm talking about sound scientific principles.

In my experience, the study of natural ecosystems will reveal everything we need to know about growing food. Natural ecosystems are generally diverse and there are a number of intricate interdependent relationships occurring between the living and non-living components at any given time. Put simply, each component relies and benefits from its interaction with other components. They fuel up on each other, causing the system to be able to sustain itself. If one part of the system gets 'out of whack', the whole system is affected.

When studying a natural ecosystem, such as a diverse pristine rainforest we find that there are many living components co-existing in a given area. Each of these components occupies a niche space. If a component, let's say a plant, is removed by an animal eating it, we are left with an empty niche. An empty niche provides an opportunity for another life form to fill the space. In natural ecosystems, nature does not tolerate empty niche spaces. Once the niche becomes available, there will be a whole host of willing opportunists ready to fill that space. Dormant seeds, sometimes decades old, will spring to life and quickly try to occupy it.

The same thing happens when we are trying to grow food. In any agricultural practice, such as a vegetable garden, there are always empty niche spaces. And remember, nature doesn't tolerate empty niche spaces. So weeds will try to fill the empty niche spaces. Weeds are very good niche space fillers. They are the ultimate colonizing plants. So as we can see there is no difference in the way nature works, whether it is in a pristine natural ecosystem or a vegetable garden.

Ecological Gardening aims to create a system where nature works for us, and not against us. It is actually quite easy to have a weed-free vegetable garden. You simply do one of two things. Firstly, you avoid having empty niche spaces. And secondly, you make sure there is something desirable to fill niche spaces, should they become available. That's just one simple example, but Ecological Gardening can easily prevent a number of problems from ever arising.

My experience with Ecological Gardening has been phenomenal. I have been able to combine natural weed management, soil ecology, pest ecology and crop management into a very simple and easy method. In fact, I have been able to create a garden that requires very little attention and produces far more than a traditional vegetable garden, simply by applying sound scientific principles. And from the incredible results that I have achieved, I can say, with absolute certainty, that Ecological Gardening is the way we will be producing food in the future.

Some of our biggest successes come from seizing an opportunity at exactly the right moment.

What constitutes constipation? Well, you are constipated if you have 1 or less bowel movements each day.

Why does this happen?

For several reasons…

It may be that you have just transitioned your eating from one that was NOT "oh so healthy" to your new healthy nutrition plan. Because you are probably, now, feeding your body more fruits, vegetables and natural foods that contain more healthy fiber, your body is trying to get used to it and adjust.

This may not be the only reason you may be experiencing constipation. One of the most common reasons people have a hard time with "number 2? is that they are dehydrated. If your colon is not absorbing enough water, it will not be able to push the bad stuff out.

You know what happens to this bad stuff? It stays inside you, making you extremely uncomfortable, fatigued, and worst of all…prevents you from losing weight!

Yes, if you have a toxic build up inside your colon, it makes it extremely difficult for your body to absorb nutrients and burn bad fat off your body.

Now those are just 2 of the many reasons you may be experiencing constipation…there are many more. The more important question is how do you tackle this uncomfortable problem?

I am not going to recommend some laxative or even some natural herbal formula. Many of these supplements can be extremely harmful and send you sprinting to the bathroom. Not to mention make it quite difficult to leave the house (imagine drinking way too much prune juice.)

Here are some easy and natural ways you can combat the old Pooping problem:

1. Make sure you are drinking enough water each and every day. How much is enough? You should be drinking half of your body weight in ounces of water each day. For example, if you weigh 200 pounds, you need 100 ounces of water (Yes! That much!) You don't have to start with that amount all at once but make sure you slowly build yourself up to drinking your targeted amount.

2. Add freshly ground flaxseeds to your meals. Fresh flaxseeds can be purchased at most supermarkets and health food stores. I grind mine up in a coffee grinder and have 1 TBSP mixed with water every morning. You can also add your tablespoon to your morning oatmeal, yogurt or even to salads or on top of fruit. Not only will you be increasing your fiber content for the day, you will be adding extra healthy Omega 3?s to your meals.

3. Make sure to include enough raw foods into each one of your meals. No, I am not suggesting you put a raw steak on a plate and eat it. But you should ensure that there is at least 1 raw component to each meal. For example, for breakfast and snacks include some fresh fruit. For lunch and dinner have some raw veggies (cucumbers, carrots and tomatoes). Cooked vegetables are great (I love my sautéed spinach and cooked cauliflower) but you will benefit more from the naturally occurring enzymes in fruits and veggies if eaten raw so make sure to include both cooked and raw into meals.

4. Start each morning with this great "digestive tonic": 1 TBSP lemon juice in one glass of water with a dash of cayenne pepper. This morning concoction will help to stimulate your bowels and release whatever "bad stuff" may be stuck to your colon walls.

Aquaponics is a new way of approaching farming. Unlike traditional agriculture where you needed plants to grow vegetables, with aquaponics you need water and fish in order to have healthy food on your table each and every day. Basically, aquaponics relies on the interdependence between fish and plants: the fish produces bio-nutrients for the plants, while the plants clean the water, creating a perfect environment for the fish to grow and develop. It is a blend of aquaculture and hydroponics that has plenty of advantages. If you need some reasons to get your own aquaponic system started, then here are some of the advantages you will get once you assemble it.

Whether you want them for cooking tasty meals or simply for your décor, they are a great addition in your home! They also have a practical purpose, as you will never have to use chemical fertilizers on your plants, thus obtaining real organic food.

If you ask how difficult is this system to put in practice, the answer is extremely simple. Not only will you be able to assemble it all by yourself, without the help of your family or neighbors, but you can also put it wherever you want. If you move from one house to another, then you simply disassemble the system and take it with you! What can be easier than that?

Another great advantage of the hydroponic farming is that it offers you financial independence and control over your money. You know exactly how much you need to spend on your food and you will no longer depend on the market for your veggies' supplies.

Last, but not least, it involves no dirty hands and clothes, no bending and digging, no land and little maintenance time, so it will be like your veggies and fish grow all by themselves! Quite an easy to put in practice system, suitable for all types of people, even for busy and impatient ones!

Welcome to the cadillac of photo-enhancers: Photoshop CS! Retouching in Photoshop can be a breeze… but not until you learn how. The Photoshop CS program is such a powerful application you could spend years just mastering the basics.

Most of us, however, don't really need a Masters in Photoshop. What most of us want is the flexibility, integrity and vast array of choices that Photoshop provides.

Let's look briefly at some of the most basic photo corrections in Photoshop CD, the ones you'll really need. Here are the first steps recommended by the experts, and they represent the process they apply to every photograph:

1- First and foremost, duplicate your original and work only on the copy.

That way, if something goes wrong, you'll always have the original. This is a great habit to get into.

2- Next, assure the correct resolution. There are two basic categories of "resolution" in computer graphics: the monitor resolution and the image resolution.

Image resolution varies from low (about 72 pixels per inch, or "ppi") to high (anything 300 ppi or larger). Of course, the higher the resolution, the bigger the file.

To change the resolution of your photo, click "Image," then "Image Size." On the bottom left of the box that comes up, type in the ppi you want, for example, 300 ppi. (You will probably want to change the size at this point. That's fine, you will still retain the ppi you chose.)

3- Use your Crop tool ( ) from the toolbox to shape your picture the way you want it.

Many people don't notice the width and height options underneath the top menu, but it's a very handy feature.

At times you have an exact measurement you need to fill; rather than fiddling with the numbers after you crop, the proper way is to insert the width and height immediately after clicking the Crop tool, and then making the crop, dragging down diagonally with your mouse. You will notice the exact measurements appear without a struggle.

4- Experiment with your automatically adjusting features. Click on "Image" in your top menu, then "Adjustments." You will see options for automatic levels, contrast and color. After you've tried them, you can go ahead and hone in to polish, if you like.

You can also try Image> Adjustments> Shadow/Highlight (or "Variations"). You'll be astonished at the variety of preset options there.

As you gan imagine, there are endless variations on the themes represented by these basic steps and the choices made therein.

But Photoshop expands past them and out into the great beyond, offering an unlimited palette and a universe of options.

Eczema is one of the most infuriating skin diseases an individual could ever have. The soreness of its symptoms which include, redness, swelling, inflaming, itching and sometimes wounding make a person's living really difficult. Eczema can range from the occasional flare up to the more severe cases.

Sometimes, this is sensitive to treat. It is even harder to deal with in the case of babies because they have a low control to itching. Since eczema is really scratchy, prickly and is really stubborn, babies and children become so irritable and upset. But there are cases wherein other kids are able to outgrow eczema, but some carry on the sting for the rest of their lives. Adults with eczema can have their jobs, sleep and many other factors of their life interfered with.

Doctors say there is no cure for eczema. But this can be treated and manage by means of these:

• For children, keep them cool with cotton clothes. Keep their nails short, as well.

• Know what food could flare up eczema to avoid symptoms trigger.

• Some tried using Tamanu and Flax oil to help in lock moisture to free skin from drying up.

• Maintain clean skin by washing it with gentle soaps. Avoid detergents and alcohol as this could start the flare up. After washing, dab skin with a towel and pat it dry. Never rub the skin roughly.

Patience is indeed a virtue. No one is to be blamed if a person has acquired this kind of disease. Deal it with properly and soon find relief.

It's difficult enough these days to maintain a healthy eating plan, let alone keep a healthy diet while traveling.I am no stranger to maintaining a healthy eating plan while being on the road. I do a good amount of traveling myself, and my clients and readers are asking me all the time:

"Isabel, I am always on the go. How can I stick to my healthy eating plan and still live my life?"

If your days really have you running around from work, to parties, to picking up kids all over the neighborhood, here are a few strategies that really do work:

1. Make your trunk your refrigerator.

Ok, not literally, but I have known many people (including myself) to keep a small cooler in their trunk at all times. They fill it with healthy goodies at the beginning of the day (raw nuts, fresh fruits and veggies, even hard boiled eggs) along with some ice packs and extra tupperware (just in case) and they're off for the day. At the end of the day, they empty whatever is left and the ice packs go back in the freezer for the next day. This is also a great way to keep your water bottles nice and cold and not warm from the car heat.

2. Make your supermarket your Fast Food stop.

Instead of a quick trip through the drive thru, run into the local supermarket and pick up an assortment of dried or fresh fruits, healthy trail mixes, fresh veggies and natural peanut or almond butter. Most supermarkets now have wonderful salad bars and prepared foods like grilled chicken and salmon (better than any fast food joint) and healthy sandwich options (be careful with certain condiments like mayo that may be added). Eliminate the fast food joints from your choices of "quick stops" and look for the hot spots in town that offer healthier options.

3. Be the bearer of good food.

When going to a barbecue or social event, always offer to bring something (now I sound like the etiquette police). I always bring something and that something is always healthy. I know, if nothing else, at least I've got that to eat (although all of my friends and family know why I do this. Even if you contribute the healthy and lean beef burgers or turkey burgers, this may deter you from the not-so healthy hot dogs and sausages. Or how about a colorful salad or fruit salad?

4. Find the healthy places all over the world.

Before I go on any trip, I go online and find the closest Whole Foods or Health Food Store. If there are none close by, I find a major supermarket. This doesn't mean I don't enjoy myself on vacation (like the Key Lime Pie I enjoyed down South) or when visiting family and friends, but I make sure that all healthy principles do NOT go out the window. I keep it healthy and have a great time! (not one or the other)

There are always great ways to maintain your healthy weight loss plans even if your life has you traveling and on the road quite a bit.

If you're traveling quite a bit, it's also important to find easy and simple strategies to maintain your current exercise routine. Here is one of my favorite exercise programs that teaches you how to get the best results in the least amount of time:

When creating soap using the hot method or the cold method, handling lye is inevitable. Lye is one of the ingredients used in making soap. It is also known by its other names, such as caustic soda and sodium hydroxide.

Lye is a very dangerous chemical. It is considered as an acid. It could cause blindness when it enters your eyes, can cause severe burns when it comes in contact with your skin, and could be fatal when swallowed. Obviously, staying conscious of the safety precautions when working with lye is necessary in order to prevent injury to yourself and to the people around you.

Here are some safety guidelines you need to observe when using and storing this essential soap making chemical.

Consult with the saponification value table and compute the amount of lye you need to use, which changes depending on the type of oil you use and its quantity. Even when using recipes, it's good practice to still double check the computation to make sure that the amount of lye you are using is sufficient (not to little, and not too much) for your recipe.

Mix your chemicals in a well-ventilated area, preferably outdoors. When lye mixes with oils, a vapor is produced which should not be inhaled.

When mixing together your lye and water, always add lye to water and never the other way around. This is because lye is acidic and has a higher ph level compared to water, and you should always add the higher ph level chemical to a lower ph level substance slowly.

Have apple cider vinegar close by all the time as a safety precaution in case you get lye on your skin or on your clothes. It has properties that can neutralize lye. Milk is another substance that can neutralize lye.

Make sure that the materials that you will use and will come in contact with lye are NOT made of iron, cast iron, plastic, aluminum and Teflon because lye will easily corrode these materials. What you should use instead are stainless steel containers.

Wear protective rubber gloves, industrial aprons or suit and goggles when working with lye. This is to prevent lye from getting into contact with your skin accidentally.

When storing lye, keep it out of reach of children and pets.

Be sure to label the container you store lye in appropriately. It should say that the chemical inside is dangerous and poisonous.

Always clean up after your done when working with chemicals like lye. Do not leave it lying around.

Create a list of the emergency numbers of agencies you can call in case an accident does occur and post them in a place where everybody can see them.

When stored, keep away from heat and moisture. Store it in a cool and dry place that is out of reach of children and pets.

Lye should be kept in an airtight container. This is because lye easily absorbs moisture, even moisture in the air.

Here are some first aid you need to know in case of accidents with lye:

1. If swallowed: Do not induce vomiting. Call for emergency help at once.

2. If it gets into your eyes: Flush you eyes with water for 20 minutes. If you are wearing contacts, first remove your contacts, and then flush your eyes with water. Immediately call for emergency help.

3. If it gets on you skin or clothes: Remove contaminated clothes. Gently wipe lye off of your skin. Pour vinegar over the affected area. Call for emergency help at once.

Most guys don't realize how much weight they have to lose to see their full 6-pack abs. In many cases guys will sabotage their own weight loss efforts because they assume they will be able to see all of their abs at an unrealistically high bodyweight.

If you want to see your abs then your goal should be how you look in the mirror and not your bodyweight. If you thought you'd see your abs at 180 pounds, and you diet down to 180 pounds and you don't' see them…well that just means you have to diet down even lower to see them, plain and simple no magic trick to that.

The amount you weigh on a scale really doesn't matter, it's the look that matters. You probably have a good idea of exactly how you'd like your body to look but only a vague idea if at all of how much you should weigh at that look. But if you've never seen your full 6-pack before I'll bet you're assuming the weight is much higher than it really is.

In other words, there is a specific bodyweight you will weigh in order for you to have a full set of visible 6-pack abs. Then there is a slightly heavier bodyweight you will be when only 4 of your abs are visible, and then an even heavier weight when only 2 of your abs are visible etc. Most guys will assume a full six pack will be visible at the bodyweight that only shows 2 abs.

For some reason we all think we should be heavier than we really are.

The point is your weight has a specific look. You will look a certain way at 150 pounds, and that particular look and leanness is different from the look you have when you are at 160 pounds and then 170 pounds and so on. You cannot force your body to have the 150 pound look when it is 170 pounds.

In other words, if your full 6-pack is visible only when you are 150 pounds…then you cannot make it visible when you are 170 pounds. It doesn't mean you can't be 170 pounds, it just means you have to accept that you will not be as ripped at 170 as you are at 150. (This might sound very obvious but lots of guys make this assumption that they can be as lean as they want at any bodyweight).

Any bodybuilder who has done more than one show can tell you within a pound or two of exactly how much he will weigh when he has a fully defined 6-pack. He can also tell you when he is 5 pounds away and when he is 10 pounds away from a visible full 6-pack.

The only way he will know this is because he's been there before and knows what he weighed the first time it happened. If he has gained 5 pounds of muscle since his last bodybuilding show, then he also knows that his 6-pack will be visible at a bodyweight 5 pounds higher than the last time it was visible. But he won't know for sure until he diets down to a visible 6-pack again.

The point is there is no real way to know exactly how much you will weigh when your abs are fully visible until you can see them.

So how do you find out how much you need to weigh to see your abs?

Simple:

Step 1) Lose weight until you can see your full 6-pack

Step 2) Step on a scale

You can use calculators and estimators all day long, but the proof is in the mirror.

If you want to see your abs then forget about bodyweight and simply diet down until you can see them, you'll most likely be lighter than you expect.

PvP in World of Warcraft is one of those contentious issues that everyone discusses multiple times over all the time – some love it and some hate it. Others just plain don't understand it and for that reason, there are all sorts of guides on the market designed to help players become better at what they do in the game and to take on all sorts of new challenges in the process.

The Cast of Characters

The guides currently out there are a pretty mixed bag. There are a whole lot of them out there and they usually consist of a whole bunch of different promises and aspects that either try to live up to the hype or just plain cheat customers out of money. The problem is that there is so much content on the subject and no single static guide can hope to cover it all. Consider for a second, how many different combinations there are:

With that much variety and the slew of different possible strategies both here and in battlegrounds, who could possible cover it all. So, you get two different possible types of guides out of this – you either get the type that skim over everything and give very general information when trying to cover every possible aspect of PvP or you get guides that don't even bother and give very specific information on only a few parts of PvP – a single class for example.

The PvP Guide Done Correctly

For this reason, I've almost never seen a PvP Guide get it quite right. When I was forwarded a copy of the PvP Bible, I actually groaned a bit at the prospect of reading it because I assumed it would be horrible. But, as soon as I looked at the table of contents, I saw that it was something more than just more filler or hyper specific information that would only help a few people. It was a big guide to be sure, but besides providing all 81 Dual strategies, it didn't try to give everything. Instead, it provided detailed outlines of the main archetypal groups for 2v2, 3v3, and 5v5 and how they are played with potentially different teams.

This made for an enlightening read and a good foundation for any new comer to PvP to start understanding what they should be doing when they enter the Arena or the Battlegrounds. To be sure, the PvP Bible is one of the best PvP Guide I've yet read not because it has everything, but because it is okay with providing an overview of some things and doing it very well.

So, you want to teach your child to read, but before a child can learn to read, he or she must first learn at least some of the letters in the alphabet, their names, and the sounds that they represent. To be able to read, a child must be able to recognize the letters, know the sound of the letters, and be able to recognize the letters quickly and say the sound without hesitation. There is plenty of discussion and disagreement on whether it's better to teach children using whole language programs or using methods which incorporate phonics and phonemic awareness instructions. I think the debate on this is settled when the National Reading Panel stated from their findings of reviewing over 1,900 studies that phonics and phonemic awareness produces superior reading results than whole language programs.

There is also some debate on whether to teach your child only letter names, or only the sounds which the letters represent. However, studies have also settled this debate by finding that teaching a child alphabet names and sounds together produces the best results. In fact, studies have found that there is little value in teaching preschoolers letter forms or letter sounds separately. This was indicated by an Australian study involving 76 preschool children. The children received 6 weeks of training in either letter awareness, phonemic awareness, or control tasks, and then received another 6 weeks of training in either letter-sound correspondence or control tasks. The study found that training in either phoneme or letter awareness assisted with learning of letter-sound correspondences, and that the phonemically trained children group had an advantage on recognition tasks. The study found that there is little value in training in letter form or letter sounds separately. [1]

As you can see, there is basically no point in only teaching either the names of the alphabet letters, or the sounds the letters make. A child must learn the name and the sound of the alphabet letter. When teaching your child the alphabet, instead of simply teaching them the name of the alphabet such as "this is the letter A", teach them like so:

"This is the letter A, and the letter A makes the /A/ sound." (note: the /A/ denote the sound "A" makes, and not its name). Similarly, you can teach your child the other alphabet letters in this way including both name and sound of the letter. This is the way I teach my children the alphabet letters. Other studies have also determined that teaching the letter names and sounds together helped children learn.

58 preschool children were randomly assigned to receive instructions in letter names and sounds, letter sound only, or numbers (control group). The results of this study are consistent with past research results in that it found children receiving letter name and sound instruction were most likely to learn the sounds of letters whose names included cues to their sounds. [2]

To be able to effectively teach your children the sounds of letters, you must first master the proper pronunciation of the letters yourself. It is critical for you as a parent to be able to first say the sounds of the letters correctly before teaching your children, and this is much tougher than it may seem.

Have you ever wondered how the characters in the films Shrek, Finding Nemo or The Incredibles were made? The characters in these films are all products of computer animation. Animation companies hire creative people with a broad knowledge and experience in drawing. This is the reason why animators should have the passion for animation, as well as talent in drawing. During the earlier years in the movie making business, cartoon series episode are done manually or drawn using the artists bare hands. But as technology advances, the tricks of the trade have been developed, which is why the animated films being shown today become more of a visual delight.

Two-dimensional and three-dimensional computer graphics are being used in computer animation. In two-dimensional or 2D animation, separate transparent layers and drawings without skeleton are used. In three-dimensional or 3D animation, the virtual skeleton is manipulated with figures. Just like the U.S., Japan is a highly developed country which has great fascination for animation. They used unique formats in traditional and robot animation, taking pride in products like Voltes V and Gundam. If you want to partake in the success of the computer animation industry, then you need to think about concentrating on computer animation careers where there are a lot of options to choose from.

Today, computers are used to give life to animation. It helps animators perform their tasks easier. If you have enough knowledge in kinematics as well as an extraordinary talent in drawing, then you are the right person for animation. But if you are interested in the same field but you are not blessed with real talent, do not lose hope. There are schools that offer courses in various creative arts and help people with their computer animation careers. You will learn about the fundamentals of artistic designing, coloring, drawing, graphic designs, video designs, cartooning and other essentials of animations.

Computer animation careers are illustrious because most companies producing animated films need creative animators. The beauty of an animated movie lies on the creativity of the animator. Animated movies will look realistic depending on the knowledge and creativity of the animator. If you would like to work as an animator, you are required to acquire a degree in animation. You may find several schools offering courses that teach technical skills and include actual practice. There are also online computer animation schools that offer short courses in the same field.

However, do not expect to become a great animator in just one day. You need a lot of practice and patience to attain the skills needed in animation. In a few years, with your time, patience and effort, you will surely gain the appropriate skills needed to become a successful animator. Animation companies prefer to employ animators with exceptional talent. Also, having a good reference in school is an advantage for future employment. After gaining enough skills and experience, you are now ready to sink your teeth in the amazing world of computer animation with computer animation careers.

Shamans are one of the most fun classes to play in World of Warcraft because of how much they can do in combat. From throwing down a dozen different totems to picking up a pair of swords with Windfury and slicing up an opponent or healing themselves back to full with a few well timed totems, a Shaman can do a bit of everything and they do it all with style. But, to be able to manage all of those totems and maintain a solid front in battle, players need to pick up a good Shaman PvP Guide.

The Basics of Playing a Shaman in PvP

So what is so special about playing a Shaman in PvP that you would need a Shaman PvP Guide to pull it off? It starts with all those totems. Shamans have multiple different elemental specs with more than 30 different totems to cast – many of which they will use. Shamans have totems like the Grounding Totem which will disrupt attacks, Earthshock which will interrupt attacks, and Poison Cleanse which will remove poisons as they are cast. They can dispel attacks, keep Rogues out of combat, absorb the Warrior's Intercept and slow a Hunter. Generally, they have something in their bag of totems for everyone.

The key to a Shaman's PvP success though is not in just having all those totems – it is in learning how to use them all effectively. If a player doesn't know how to put all of their totems into play in the right order and how to keep them up while maintaining mana efficiency, they will quickly dive into overuse and the opponents will simply outwait their mana pool, killing off totems until the Shaman becomes essentially useless and dies.

The Practical Value of a Good Shaman PvP Guide

With a solid Shaman PvP Guide in hand, a player can learn which totems are necessary for which fights. They will learn how to put totems into play against each class and how to maintain their health and mana without giving up ground or rolling over for their opponents too easily. Shaman PvP Guides are written with each possible opponent in mind. They provide detailed information about what opposition will do to the Shaman and how each Totem can be effectively used to counter them. The goal here is to be prepared for anything and to wrap your head around all those possible responses in your skill book. If you can do that, with the help of a good Shaman PvP Guide, you can be extremely dangerous in PvP combat.

Tonsil stones also commonly known as tonsilloliths are these bad smelling rocks that seem to just appear in your mouth or some people get them stuck in their tonsils. Sometimes you can even cough them out especially when they are huge. They stink like rotten eggs and look like clumps of white yellowish balls. Not many people know how to prevent tonsil stones from returning.

Many people know how to eliminate tonsilloliths, that is by coughing it out, gagging, using a waterpik and other ways. But those ways only solve the problem for that day, because in my experience once you get rid of these stones they will keep coming back unless you learn the secret to prevent tonsil stones.

The key to prevent tonsil stones lies in holistic natural remedies. I believe that Western medicine does not solve the problem of tonsil stones. There are many health issues that can only be treated by holistic medicine, using alternative medicine such as acupuncture, cupping, candle waxing and remedial massages.

For years I have suffered from tonsilloliths, and never knew why I was getting them. Tonsil stones can ruin someone's self esteem, it can ruin relationships, it can cause social problems. And it might sound extreme, but that is the truth. Having bad breath everyday, is extremely embarrassing. Can you imaging kissing someone that has extremely bad breath, and it doesn't matter how many times brush your teeth it still smells. Well, if you won't want to kiss anybody like that, then you will understand how it feels for someone else to kiss you with such bad breath.

Sometimes you think it doesn't smell THAT bad. But that's because you've immune to it. Many people cannot smell their own bad breath.

I have taught thousands of people around the world just like you how to prevent tonsil stones. I have written a book called " Tonsil Stones Remedies" that has been an international success. I still get emails from customers around the world telling me how I have helped them, and that they are so glad to have banished tonsil stones from their life.

I have revealed the step-by-step guideline to removing tonsil stones in my book, which only costs $14.97 for a downloadable eBook. This means that within minutes you are on the way to preventing tonsil stones from coming back to your life. This price of this book is to cover advertising costs and other co

There are just a few systems that can provide free electricity from energy resources. The most famous system is the transfer of power from radiation to electrical power. Radiant energy was always in our atmosphere. This system contains solar radiation from the sun, also as outer space energy from the stars. This Free energy system connects this energy in order to create electricity for your house. The notion of changing the radiant energy to free electricity belongs to the famous inventor, Nicola Tesla EnergyByTesla. You can set this simple tool in your house and that would perform as proof of theory that electricity can be produced from all the radiation that exist in our atmosphere. As soon as you start to set this system you will need an aluminum plate. The plate has to be well protected and covered with insulating material. If your plate is going to be large then you will get also the best results. A small plate can be used only for a small demonstration. The cable that will be connected to the aluminum plate is going to carry the electric current produced by your machine. A full signal rectifier and a capacitor should be used to fix and to control the output current. This simple test should prove that these principles are really true and this that this energy by Tesla system will bring for you so many benefits.

Radiant Energy from the Sky

In our past this simple technology was a myth. If it were up to the oil corporations and big trades, it would still be a myth. This radiant energy is not a myth that is why more and more people are embracing this alternative energy technology. It is so simple to assemble and to construct an electricity motor that will fully power your house, depending on the volume unit that you want to create. Solar panels and wind energy are also superior energy alternatives, but frankly you can't compare them. A magnet motor can be easily created by you with the right step by step instruction plans. If you're prepared to control your future and your money, purchase this wonderful system and get busy creating your personal free energy magnetic motor. It is a continuous motion machine that will never stop, even if you might have to restore them in your generator just once, approximately every 400 years. This machine will work in every home and here comes the best thing; you only need to allocate a small space for this energy motor. All the materials that are required to create a motor are low priced and they are usually available in your local stores.

Raise your hand if you know how much you bench? I should see all of your hands raised. Whether you have an internet forum record 900 lbs bench or are still trying to slap on 2 plates and press it up, most of us will always want to know 'How do I get a huge bench?'. Well, it's not as confusing as it may seem, but it will require some thought. Below you will find 3 areas that are crucial elements toward developing a monster bench and a bullet-proof chest.

1. Press From Every Angle: How many of you bench and bench and bench some more? If you are one of those types, get your butt off the bench and try pressing from different angles. If you are a raw bencher, shoulder and tricep strength is crucial for putting up monster numbers. Military pressing with either dumbbells or a barbell, will help balance out the musculature of the shoulder girdle and also give your triceps a tremendous strength boost. Also, balancing out your horizontal pressing with vertical pressing variations can actually HELP shoulder problems. However, if you shoulder is shot and you can't kick you bench addiction, incline pressing also gives the anterior delts, pecs, and triceps a good stretch and will help your bench strength.

2. Row to grow: Many people are lacking in posterior muscle strength. I could go on and on about the posterior chain, but for the sake of this article I will keep it condensed to the muscles of the upper back and the lats. The only way you are going to be able to press big weights is if you create a strong and stable foundation from which to bench from. Have you ever gotten a case of the "wobbles"? You know where you unrack the weight and the weight of the bar throws you to one side and you have to counterbalance before you start to bench? Well, that is a lack of stability because of weak lats. Barbell rows, chest-supported rows, DB rows, chins, pull-ups, all will help you develop a huge bench. Generally speaking, I like to perform 2 sets of rows or vertical pulls for every set of pressing I do, including warm up sets. Get your lats thick and strong and watch as PR's fall on your bench.

3. Pre-Hab work: It's not sexy or even cool, but you MUST do some sort of shoulder pre-hab work. The muscles of the rotator cuff play a huge role in stabilizing heavy weights when you bench. The weaker they are or become, the more likely you will stall on your bench progress or even worse, get injured. Band external rotations, DB external rotations, really any sort of external rotation, will help you stay healthy and help your quest for a monster bench. Also, do not forget shoulder girdle mobility as well. Band Dislocates, plate halos etc., will help lube up the joints prior to starting your heavy benching.

Well, there you have it. Three action items you must address in order to get your bench moving and get that chest "SWOLE". Check out below for a way to tie it all together.

Hyperacusis tinnitus is an extreme sensitivity to sound. About 8% of the population suffer from this condition, with most sufferers not being born with a sensitivity to sound. Instead, they develop weak eardrums as they get older. Hyperacusis tinnitus is different from regular cases of tinnitus. Hyperaciusis refers to a sensitivity to sound. When someone suffers from hyperacusis tinnitus, they not only are experience ringing in their ears, but they also have developed a sensitivity to sound. There are a number of different potential causes of hyperacusis tinnitus. This could include damage to the inner ear, Meniere's disease, lyme disease, excessive prolonged exposure to loud noises, migraines, chronic ear infections, and side effects of some medications. It's believed though that most cases of this form of tinnitus are caused by damage to the inner ear, causing signals to be missent to the brain and causing sensitivity to noise.

Hyperacusis tinnitus can be treated in a number of different ways, just like standard tinnitus. Medications, tinnitus maskers, and therapy have all proven to be useful. Be careful with medications because many have tinnitus as a possible side effect, so in attempting to relieve tinnitus, you might actually make it worse. After discussing medication options with your doctor, they still might decide to prescribe antidepressants to help cope with any depression that is a result of the hyperacusis tinnitus. Often times this form of tinnitus can be linked to migraines, so treating the migraines can inadvertently relieve the tinnitus as well.

Often times treatment methods that don't involve medication are prefered because of possible side effects with medical treatments. Protecting your ears by wearing ear plugs in situations with loud noises is crucial to keep further damage from occurring. Being in situations with loud noises will also make your tinnitus worse, so protect your ears. Tinnitus maskers are a safe way to drown on the ringing. They can be used anytime and anywhere, but most sufferers just utilize them at night when there are fewer outside noises to compete with the tinnitus. Maskers can come in a variety of different sounds, from white noise to whale calls. Avoiding foods and drinks that can trigger migraines, alcohol for example, is also a good idea.

One of the newer (and more effective) solutions for tinnitus that has come to surface is called Goodbye Tinnitus. This program is completely accessed online. It includes an easy to read ebook that explains everything there is to know about tinnitus. Not only are the necessary basics covered, but also all the known (an not so well known) treatment options available. The main solution discussed in this ebook is a unique 4-step treatment plan. This specific plan addresses tinnitus at its core, and from every aspect, making relief much easier to achieve compared to the typical solutions found elsewhere. Also included are dozens of tinnitus maskers, ranging from specialized noise frequencies, nature sounds, and man made sounds. From our research, Goodbye Tinnitus seems to be the most effective solution available. No other solution fights tinnitus in such a complex, yet simple and effective manner.

For a new player in World of Warcraft, the prospect of jumping into PvP against players who have been playing there since 2004 is incredibly daunting. There are so many combinations, so many strategies, and so many ways you can make mistakes right away that it is downright intimidating to even consider throwing your hat in with your newly leveled Hunter.

But, PvP is among the most engaging end-game content in WoW and so you shouldn't write it off just because you are concerned that it is a bit too overwhelming. Many people turn to Hunter PvP guides for this reason, as they provide a well rounded, feature rich means by which to develop a series of strategies that will take any newbie into the chaos of PvP battle with at least a chance of winning.

You will learn what a good Hunter comes into a fight with in terms of gear, their talents specs, and their gameplan. You will learn how almost all hunters freely use their Freezing and Frost Traps and essential crowd control devices and how they manage the space between them and their opponents to maintain the right distance and hit them as hard as they need to do the most possible DPS damage in each fight.

The best part is that most Hunter PvP Guides will show you how to kill your opponent step by step from the very beginning to the end. You will learn how Druids or Warriors or Rogues will approach you and why you need to be especially careful of certain classes that can close into melee quickly such as Warriors and Rogues.

The Right Hunter PvP Guide Makes a Difference

You must learn how to read your opponents, know what they will expect of you and be ready for anything. These are real opponents now and only a good Hunter PvP Guide can actually prepare you for all of those things. For anyone who has never read a Hunter PvP Guide or any PvP guide for that matter, you should seriously consider spending a few moments with one so you can build up a series of solid strategies before setting foot into an arena, battleground or even into PvP flagged world combat.
